DAY 29

Short Review
Analyze each scenario and identify what excel function can be used.

Scenario 1: You have a spreadsheet of employee data with columns for name,
department, salary, and years of experience. You need to quickly see the top 10
earners in the "Sales" department.

Scenario 2: You have a list of customer addresses with columns for city, state, and
zip code. You need to quickly identify all customers who live in a specific state.

Scenario 3: You have a spreadsheet of sales data with columns for date, region,
and sales amount. You want to quickly see the total sales for each region across
different months.

Scenario 4: You are creating a form where users can enter a date. You want to
ensure that they enter a valid date within a specific range (e.g., between January
1st and December 31st).
Let’s think about it…

"Imagine you're managing a project with a

deadline. You want to quickly identify tasks
that are on track, behind schedule, or at risk of
being late. How could you visually highlight
these different statuses in your spreadsheet?“

"We can use a handy tool in Excel called

Conditional Formatting to do just that!"
Content Area Vocabulary
Datasets - Collections of related information or data that can be analyzed or
used for various purposes.
Conditional Formatting - A feature in software applications like Excel that
automatically applies formatting, such as color or style changes, to cells based
on specified conditions or criteria.
Analyze Data - The process of examining and interpreting data to uncover
patterns, trends, or insights that can inform decision-making or solve problems.
Insights - Valuable or meaningful observations, interpretations, or conclusions
derived from analyzing data, often leading to a better understanding of a
situation or problem.
PivotTable - A tool in spreadsheet software like Excel used to summarize,
analyze, and present large amounts of data in a compact and organized format
through customizable tables.
Threshold - A predetermined level or point that serves as a boundary or limit,
often used in data analysis to signify a specific value or condition that triggers a
particular action or decision.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

Conditional formatting in Microsoft Excel is like giving your

spreadsheet special powers to change the way it looks based on
certain conditions or rules you set. Imagine it like magic colors
that appear when certain things happen in your spreadsheet.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

What is Conditional Formatting?

Conditional formatting is a feature in Excel

that lets you change the appearance of cells
based on certain conditions. For example, you
can make a cell turn red if the number in it is
less than 50 or turn green if it's greater than
75.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

How to Use Conditional Formatting:

1. First, select the cells you want to apply conditional formatting to.
2. Then, go to the "Home" tab on the Excel ribbon.
3. Look for the "Conditional Formatting" option. It might be under
the "Styles" group.
4. Click on it, and you'll see a bunch of different rules you can choose
from, like "Highlight Cells Rules" or "Top/Bottom Rules".
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

Types of Conditional Formatting:

1. Highlight Cells Rules:
These rules let you choose how to format
cells based on their values. You can make
cells with certain values bold, italic, or
change their background color. Examples are
dates after this week, or numbers between
50 and 100, or the bottom 10% of scores.
Highlight all Students with Honors having
90% and above Average.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

Types of Conditional Formatting:

2. Top/Bottom Rules:
These rules let you format cells that are in
the top or bottom percentages or numbers in
your data. For example, you can make the
top 10% of scores green. Top 10 Highest
Student Grade. Highlight students with below
average scores.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

Types of Conditional Formatting:

3. Data Bars, Color Scales, and Icon Sets:
These options let you visually represent your data using bars, colors, or
icons.
Data Bars show the relationship of values in a cell range. Extends a band of
color across the cell. Examples are comparisons of prices or populations in
the largest cities. Data bars can help you spot the highest and lowers
numbers in your spreadsheets at a glance.
Color Scales show the relationship of values in a cell range. Applies a color
scale where the intensity of the cell's color reflects the value's placement
toward the top or bottom of the range. An example is sales distributions
across regions.
Icon Sets - A cell range that contains three to five groups of values, where
each group has its own threshold. For example, you might assign a set of
three icons to highlight cells that reflect sales below ₱30,000, below
₱20,000, and below ₱10,000. Or you might assign a 5-point rating system
for mobile phones and apply a set of five icons.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

Types of Conditional Formatting:

4. Creating Your Own Rules:

If none of the preset rules suit your needs, you can create custom
rules. This allows you to specify exactly what conditions should
trigger the formatting you want.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING
Worked Examples
Create a table for the following Datasets:

1. Let's say you have a list of test scores with 50 items. You can use
conditional formatting to make scores above 30 turn green and scores
below 25 turn red.
2. You have a budget spreadsheet; you can use conditional formatting to
highlight expenses that exceed a certain amount.
3. Create a summary of the number of students in every section from grade
7 to Grade 10. Another column for the number of Boys and Girls. Apply the
conditional formatting using Data Bars to see the difference per section.
4. You are monitoring the heat index of your City or Municipality. Create a
table of everyday Heat Index Result for One Month. Use Color Scales to
monitor the results.
5. Make an inventory of snacks in the school canteen. Include the Gross
Amount Sales per Day. Use the Icon Sets to identify the profitable items and
not profitable.
DAY 30
Lesson Activity
